Free Tuesday Concerts at Elma Lewis Playhouse - August 3
On Tuesday August 3d - 11am - Estrellas Tropicales ~ A baton twirling group from Jamaica Plain with Caribbean flair. - 6pm - Zili Misik ~ Powerful Haitian, Brazilian, and West African rhythms infuse Zili's original and traditional folk songs. Bring all your friends, a picnic supper and your lawn chairs! From 1966 - 1978, Elma Lewis brought summer performances to Franklin Park and helped bring the park back from neglect and disuse. Today, in response to huge community interest and to draw diverse Boston residents into the park, the Franklin Park Coalition (FPC) has revived the Playhouse....with concerts, theatre, and dance performances. Summer concerts every Tuesday morning and evening throughout July and August. Morning shows target summer camps and youth programs but also bring elder groups to the park - bring a picnic lunch and stay for the day! Evening concerts are for everyone. For lots more information about the Playhouse please visit FPC's website.
